A NEW mini market store is opening its doors in a Flintshire town centre.
Holywell Mini Market will be soon opening in the old Savers building, next to the Market Cross pub, on the High Street in the town.
Town councillor, Daniel Thomas, described it as "excellent" news for the town - amid anti-social behaviour issues which have been blighting it.
“A handful of children have been causing problems in Holywell recently which has caused a lot of negativity about our town," he said.
"It's great to see that this negativity isn't putting people off opening a new business here. I welcome the new Mini Market to the town centre."

After news of the store's opening was shared on Facebook, there was mixed reaction. Some were pleased to a shop vacant for years opening back up again, but others wanted a different type of store.
One person said: "Good to see a shop that has been vacant for years now open."
Some people bemoaned the fact that it wasn't a clothes shop opening, with the recent closure of Peacocks in the town centre.
